My favourite fighting series of all time is Soulcalibur, with Soulcalibur II on Gamecube being the highlight as you can be Link! What I didn’t realize was that before Soulcalibur was actually a sequel to Soul Edge – an arcade and Playstation weapon-based fighting game. I recently sat down for an afternoon with the game… Read More PSX Review – Soul Blade
In grade 2, I played this game for the first time. It was awesome – blood, guts, and multiplayer mayhem! My brother and I played the hell out of this game – and I even set up a little tournament with my friends! It has been years since I have played this game (although I… Read More SNES Review – Mortal Kombat II
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was my favourite cartoon growing up. Whenever the theme song came on, my brother and I would launch ourselves over the couch in anticipation, ready to consume the 22 minute TV show.

It quickly became one… Read More Dreamcast Review – Soul Calibur
Early in the life of the N64 – my brother and I rented Killer Instinct Gold – at the time the graphics dazzled me, and I was super impressed with how cool the characters were, and how crazy the killer combos could get. Having not played the game for at least 15 years, and having not… Read More N64 Review – Killer Instinct Gold
Growing up, I never played Street Fighter Alpha 2 – I didn’t even know it existed!

Street Fighter Alpha 2 – which was released at the end of the SNES lifecycle in… Read More SNES Review – Street Fighter Alpha 2
